A9BEMRLI !OF TIIF. RECONSTRUCTION CON*
YF.NTION —Till-'. CANDIDATES FOR THE OF
FICES.
Atlanta, Ga., December 9, 1867.
At about, i I o’clock this morning the Re
construction Convention assembled at the
City Hall, and alter some little delay elect
ed Air. Dunning, of Atlanta, the temporary
chairman. The order of General Pope,
giving the result of the election, the names
of the delegates, and ordering the conven
tion to assemble to-day, was then read, and
the delegates present, answered to their
names. An effort was made to elect a per
manent President; but in the absence of
several of the delegates, who, it is sup
posed, will arrive to-day, a motion to ad
journ until to-morrow at noon prevailed,
and during that time great will be tlie ex
ertions of those who are ambitious of the
honors of oflice, whether it be President or
door-keeper. Three names are prominently
mentioned as candidates for the chair. Air.
Parrott, of Bartow county, is one—an un
successful politician, a mediocre lawyer, a
Union man inf ore the war and an acquies
cent Georgian during the war. He is said
to be very anxious for the position, and his
friends desire earnestly to press his nomina
tion. He is supposed to be Conservative,
that is, in favor of negro suffrage, but op
posed to negroes holding office or sitting on
juries. Mr. Hopkins, of Mclntosh county, is
another, lie is an extreme Radical of the
most vindictive and violent character. He
loves to express liis desire to witness the
hanging of all rebels, the confiscation of
estates and the beggary of their families.—
He contemplates with peculiar gratification
the hanging of Air. A. 11. Stephens, and
mentions liio delight it would afford him
(Hopkins) to tie a stone to Stephens’ feet,
and “make his neck crack.” Mr. Kent
McCoy, of Sumter county, is a third whose
name is prominently mentioned. He is a
Pennsylvanian by birth, has lived at the
South for many years, served in the Con
federate armies as Brigadier General of the
Georgia militia, is a lawyer of some distinc
tion and considerable popularity. He takes
advanced Radical ground on the question
of suffrage and negro equality, and favors a
sweeping measure of relief in the shape of
an ordinance wiping out all debts contract
ed prior to the date of the proposed legisla
tion. Mr. Foster Blodgett, of Augusta, is
still a candidate ior the efiice of President,
and great exertions will he made by liis
friends to elect him. But it is thought they
will fail, owing to the reluctance of several
delegates to place in the chair a man under
indictment for a felony by a grand jury of
his own choice. The out-and-out Radicals,
like Bryant and Bradley, will do their ut
■hiost for Blodgett.
I have given you the names of the promi
nent candidates, hut there are hundreds of
others who severally saucy that they may
be and ought to he the honored individual.
From the moment that the hall was
thrown open, crowds poured into the only
available space which was left to outsiders.
Most of these were opposed to the conven
tion, and went to look on as if it were a
show of some kind. They sought and
pointed out the negro delegates as objects
of special curiosity ; and one individual,
■ from South Carolina, after looking at the
body of the-house, asking the names of all
the colored delegates and witnessing the
proceeding for a few minutes, remarked as
he went out: “It does seem mighty odd,
don’t it, to see men sitting in a convention
t
Sri-tUcdilii CfnstitutionnliGt.
in Georgia, both ends of whose hair grow
in their heads ?"
At all the hotels, boarding-houses and
places of entertainment there are caucuses
and gatherings of more or less importance.
Busy among the busiest might be seen
Joseph E. Brown, talking confidentially in
a comer, now with one delegate, then with
another; then moving among the lobby,
giving advice and information to many at
tentive listeners. Mr. Brown is supposed
here to represent the opinions of Gen. Pope,
and to be laboring to carry out the Gen
eral’s views. He is for a qualiiied negro
suffrage, exclusion of negroes from office, as
the reconstruction laws say nothing on
that subject, their exclusion from juries,
universal amnesty, and a mild, but com
prehensive measure of relief. This is what
is generally understood to be his position,
and it derives much greater importance
from its being the alleged counterpart of
Gen. Pope’s position. I hear that lie lias
not much hope of qualifying the suffrage,
but he does expect to prevent negro juries
and office-holders. From what I can see of
the temper and composition of the conven
tion I should expect to sec ultra radicalism
prevail. Mr. Dunning, the temporary Chair
man, is as violent as Mr. Thacl. Stevens,
and the move to adjourn originated with
the ultra men, was passed by their strength
and is designed to serve their interests.
It is ascertained beyond a doubt that
the convention are nearly unanimous in
support of “ relief.” Most of them favor
it because they profess to think that the
necessities of the people require an obliter
ation of old debts, while many do not be
lieve anything of the kind, but support it
as a necessary measure to secure votes for
(he ratification of what the convention may
do. Between both it is certain that repu
diation in some form will pass, anti it is
believed that Congress will accept it soon
er than risk the successor their reconstruc
tion scheme.

General Pope did not appear in the con
vention to-day. He has Had several of the
most influential members at his office, and
has given them his views til length. But
no military man was to be seen in or near
the hall.
Bradley only spoke once, and that was to
express his views on a point of parliamen
tary law. He said that as a motion to ad
journ was always in order, it is competent
to a member to renew it indefinitely in
case of an adverse vote of the body. Ifc
was overruled and subsided. He is a dark
mulatto, not intelligent in appearance, and
not near as good looking as several other
negro delegates present. I heard to-day
that Bradley was Rufus Choate’s body
servant, and that if was while answering
the door of Choate’s office and dusting the
table that he acquired his proficiency as a
lawyer.
To-morrow, doubtless, the convention
will organize and proceed to business. —
Some say it will continue in session two
months,others that it will finish in three
weeks. lam not inclined to believe that
they will sit long. Their own business
will com [tel a majority t-ouse dispatch so
as to get back to their homes, and the pre
ent state oftheir pockets does not admit of
an indefinite stay at the Atlantic Hotel,
where the present charge is $-1 per day, and
where the hopes of receiving a per diem de
pend for realization on there “ being money
in the treasury.”
The weather is cold, raw and disagreea
ble, and threatens snow.

A Daniel Come to Judgment.—-At the re
cent session of the ( blind Suites I list riel. Court
in Newt MTit, application M as made before Jmlge
brooks h.v the lloti. T. (-. Fuller, counsel for
Messrs. Tolar, l’o.wers, and Watkins, for the
issuance of a writ. ""
nU......,,,.„q. r .-d clients before it etvil Uumna).
An aide anil conclusive argument was delivered
in support of the prayer, in reply to wldcii the
judge said, that before hearing the argument he
bad been disposed to refuse the petition, blithe
bad since changed bis mind.
Mr. Fuller—“ Then your Honor will grant
us the writ ?”
The Judge —“ No, no, I cannot do that.”
Air. Fuller—“ Then your Honor refuses onr
prayer V”
The Judge—“ No, Ido not refuse.”
Mr. Fuller—“ Will your Honor then please
inform us what is your intention f"
The Judge—“ Why, Mr. Fuller, do you not
see that if 1 grant this writ l will come into
direct conflict with the military authorities, and
will be obliged to decide upon llm constitution
ality of the reconstruction jaws S'”
Air. Fuller —“ Yes, your Honor, I compre
hend all that, but 1 (io not see how you can
avoid a decision either one way nr the other.
Here is a plain question of law submitted for
your consideration, and Ido not see how you
can avoid it.”
The Judge—“ Well, Mr. Fuller, 1 will tell
you what, 1 will do. When I get to Wilming
ton, I will write to Judge Chose and see What he
thinks about it.”
So the writ was not granted. Comment is,
unnecessary. It is said that District Attorney
Starbuck wrote to Attorney General Stanbery
to know whether he should take the iron clad
oath, and it has grown into an axiom among
the members of the legal profession in the
State, that Mr. Chase keeps Mr. Brooks’ law,
and Mr. Stanbery Mr. Starbuck’s conscience.
Cure for Cold Fef,t. —W r e are assured by
one who has given the experiment a fair trial,
that cold feet, and especially those superlative

This is to wear cotton socks next the skin and
woolen stockings outside of them. In tiic in
stance of our informant, the result was success
ful in keeping his feet warm and dry. The sin
gular consequeuce also ensued, t hat at night lie
"would find the cotton socks (uext liis skin)
quite dry, while the. outside woollen stockings
would be perfectly damp.

Gentlemkn : I am well pleased with the result of the
use of the “ Double Refined Poadrette ” on my crops. I
tried it on both com and cotton, and am satisfied wher
ever it was applied the yield was more than double what
it would have been without it. I regret exceedingly my
not using it more extensively the present year, but will
try to make up my loss by purchasing a larger quantity
next spring. I regard it as the cheapest, most reliable
and easiest managed fertilizer within my knowledge, and
cheerfully recommend it (as I have tried it thoroughly,)
to the farmers of this section, and particularly to those
planting cotton, from the fact of its causing it to mature
from ten days to two weeks earlier than it would without
the use of the Foudretto. I also used it on my garden
and found it of much benefit to all kinds of plants.
Very respectfully, &c.,
G. S. OGLESBY.
Extract from a loUer'reccived from Professor Martin,
of Hampden, Sidney College, Virginia, dated July Ist,
1867:
The Double Refined Poudrctlc is operating like a charm
on my crop, and attracting universal attention from all
beholders. I am already f-atitfied that it is the cheapest
and surest renovator of our worn-out lands.
High Skoals, Ga., Oct. 4,1867.
Jarn.cs R. Dey, Esq.:
Sir: The Double Refined Poudrettc I bought for two
other p: rtics in connection with myself—one of them
used it on cotton and corn, and thinks it answered finely;
the other put it on cotton, ou very poor ground, anil
thinks it doubled his crop. I used it on efirn. It answer
ed finely, and was thought by the liand that cultivated
the crop to he fully equal to Rhode’s Super-Phosphate. I
also used it o:i about an acre of cotton, and I am clearly
of opinion that if is the best and cheapest fertilizer in
use, and l expect to order several tons this winter.
Yours, very respectfully,
ISAAC POWELL.
EU.AVIt.LK, SCnLRT COUNTY, Ga., Oct. 4, 1867.
The Double Refined Poadrette, purchased of you last

B®* FAITH WMLL FOUNDED.—In old times, at the
commencement of every season, it was the fashion to
take a strong cathartic as a safeguard against a change
oi temperature. It was a worse than senseless practice.
The people of our day understand the matter better.—
Instead of depleting the system they reinforce it. In
the method they adopt they exhibit a wise discrimina
tion. Instead of resorting to the vitiated stimulants of
commerce, or any of the compounds derived from them,
they put their faith in the only absolutely pure invlgo
rant procurable in the market—HOSTKTTBR’S STOM
ACH BITTERS. Their faith is well founded. Nover
has afly tonic medicine been prepared with such scrupu
lous precision and conscientious care. It is a vegetable
compound, of which every ingredient is sound, whole
some, aui medicinal, in the true sense of the word.—
Now, wc have three prominent national complaints.
One-lialf of the adult population of the United States
sutler more or less, either from diseases of the stomach,
derangements of the liver, or affections cf the kidneys.
In no other land under- Heaven are these maladies so
general as in this country, and lIOSTETTER’S BIT
TERS is a specific for them all, unless organic in their
origin, and, therelore, beyond cure. And let those who
are fortunate euougli to be exempt from them at present
understand one groat fact, viz: that an occasional use of
this vitalizing tonic will as certainly prevent them as
the sun will prevent the earth from freezing where its
genial beams descend. deel-tlfi

Os all the medicines that have been discovered dur
ing the present ago for the “ thousand ills that flesh is
heir to,” none equal this wonJerfu preparation. Only
ten years have elapsed since the discoverer (who spent
a decade in studying experiments, and protecting it)
first introduced it to the public, and it is already re
cognized by the most eminent physicians in all parts
of the country, to be the most surprising and effective
remedy for certain diseases of which they have any
knowledge.
All other Compounds or Syrups of this root have
hitherto failed to command the sanction of the Facul

contain noxious ingredients, which neutralize the good
effects of the Sarsaparilla, and oftentimes injure the
health of the patient. It is not so with HURLEY’S
